Never took off because employees care zero that you took a Coursera class. Might as well watch YouTube videos or take local community college classes.

Jules quickly after a few messages/prompts just gets stuck in an endless loop like Gemini-cli does. These two products are really behind Claude Code at producing something beyond the most limited and basic changes. The worst part is th

I tried it. Not bad for the size (of the model) and speed. Once you install all the massive number of libraries and things needed we are a far cry away from 25MB though. Cool project nonetheless.

I know it's popular to dunk on Elon because of US politics, but it seems like a fun idea. Charge, watch a big screen and eat junk food. This is like the most peak American activity possible. You can loaf and eat a slice of apple pie...

I understand that, my point is that Meta/Amazon/Google have massively pulled back on hiring as well. I personally went from being contacted several times per year by Meta to being 100% ghosted mid-conversation last time. They fire

Where would those employees go? Almost all rival big tech companies are implementing the same thing. They also have a nearly complete hiring freeze unless it's for a super critical role (very rare) or extremely high skilled AI work (fe

Everyone can see what is coming, but it appears we will give up everything to “protect the children.” One “reasonable” new rule at a time.

Seems like Western governments are pushing for this to be the default to interact with almost any website soon enough. You know, to "protect the children." Soon you will have to nope out of the entire internet.

What I always wondered is if I get this test done, what would I even do with the results? If my arteries are already clogged, etc. Can this plaque be reversed?

It's pretty simple I feel. As prices drop, the elite will buy more until most/all housing stock for the lower and middle class is owned by them. Then any labor done by most people will be used to pay them tribute. When you have un

If "your" genes can be so easily modified (down the line by your children doing gene therapies) there is nothing you are really passing on. In fact you are doing the exact opposite. The best way to pass your genes on is to have th

Report what? They say everything verbally in a closed office. There is no paper trail. Even if there was, the entire industry and current administration are in complete alignment on this issue. They want to reduce labor costs.

FizzBuzz was always a great filter. Even in the pre-LLM days. Many people can code for years and never once use the modulo operator. Solving the problem gets a lot more clunky without it and they get rejected.

Agree. But also I feel Instagram is the exact same. They just hope to make a quick buck off the outrage engagement along the way.

You are certainly right that this group has little spending self-control. There is no limit just about to how abusive companies like Hasbro, Nvidia and Nintendo can be and still rake in record sales. They will complain endlessly about the p

Hopefully that will be fixed this year, or tech layoffs and outsourcing in the US will pick up pace. Without the R&D write off, each dev in the US is a massive financial black hole vs hiring outside the US.

At big tech I am going to have to agree. At best it has allowed me to skip the phone screen. Beyond that, it's zero advantage. Even with a really high up employee.

Correct me if I am wrong, but historically hyperinflation only happens when domestic production is destroyed due to a war or large scale civil unrest. In Germany’s case much of their industrial capacity was destroyed or seized as reparation
